This document defines an extension block that may be used with the Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Bundle Protocol. This Metadata Extension Block is designed to carry additional information that DTN nodes can use to make processing decisions regarding bundles, such as deciding whether to store a bundle or determining to which nodes to forward a bundle. The metadata that is carried in a metadata...

pistachios are salt tolerant crops, but the degree of salt tolerance of pistachio cultivars grown in northern parts of yazd province, iran, is not adequately known. in order to evaluate the effect of saline water on the growth and chemical composition of pistachio seedlings, a glasshouse experiment was conducted on five cultivars of pistachio namely, hajabdolahi, hajagha-ali, jalilaghaii, paran...

The severity of Zn deficiency increased with increase in soil exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) with salt sensitive variety M1-48 scoring 6 at ESP 62 as against only score 3 by salt tolerant variety Pokkali under similar soil conditions. Strikingly, zinc contents were much higher in salt tolerant variety than in salt sensitive one. Zinc application increased zinc concentration in the roots b...

This research was carried out to determine effect of sorghum cultivars and copper foliar spray on physiological traits under saline water situation via split plot experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications during 2015 and 2016 year. The main plot consisted sorghum cultivars at three level (Kimia, KGS10, KGS4) and Copper foliar spray (C1: 0 or control...

potassium plays an important role in improving plant tolerance to abiotic stresses such as salinity stress. to evaluate the effect of potassium on salinity tolerance of two wheat cultivars, kavir (as salt tolerant) and qods (as salt-sensitive), a pot experiment was conducted, using a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications in different treatments (...

abstract     the major constraints of agricultural production in the south western coastal areas of bangladesh are soil and water salinity of varying degrees, lack of fresh water for irrigation, slow soil drying pattern which are being augmented further due to climate change, requires suitable options of farming systems and component technologies. the major constraints and potentials of agricul...
